Consider the POVRay Short Code Contest round 3 (SCC3) open!
The beginnings of the www page is here
http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/scc3/
It will evolve as time goes on. If you have any suggestions,
corrections, complaints (surely not), then feel free to
email me or post them here for debate.
The submission page is working although it hasn't been stress
tested, so be gentle.

My first thought was that the closing on 29 feb might be
too soon and that perhaps you should give people more
time for there entry. The I though: well that is about
2 keystrokes per hour worst case, and most people type
faster than that. But on the other hand typing source
is not what takes the most time with POV ;) .

Sorry, I meant of course 2 hour per keystroke.

Is more than one entry per person allowed ?

Yes, although don't get carried away....quality rather than
quantity is what should be aimed for.
ps: I would like to fill out the examples section a bit more
to perhaps help any new people, do you have any examples from
previous rounds I could use?

If a lot of people feel that way I will consider extending it
but I figured the participants are mostly going to be motivated
and as such 3 weeks seems ample.
Have you submitted before? If so do you have an samples I
could add to the examples page to perhaps give new people
some ideas.

By the way, perhaps you should mention in the page the exact rendering
settings you will be using to render the images (the command-line options
should suffice).
If you have a fast machine, I propose rather good-quality settings
(mainly with regard to antialiasing, something like "+a0.1 +am2").
And you perhaps might like to add a restriction of the type "the image
should not take more than <n> hours to render with these settings in
a <computer type>".

I think idea of 'examples' page should be done in form of directing to
previous rounds rather then separate page page. I wonder if it would be
possible to create:
http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/scc1/
http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/scc2/
I'm sure neither Chris Cason (who holds its previous domain) nor Greg would
protest.
Btw rendering with Linux: This is a first beta of 3.6, not Nth. While I do
think it is good quality, I think you should consider verification of rendered
image with poster before publication on voting page. There is always
possibility that Windows owners could see different rendering than Linux
owners due to nature of beta test phase of development.
